Had a great relaxing cruise despite of not seeing a sea life out there.
This was a four and half hour whale watching cruise. I really enjoyed the cruise. It was relaxing, peaceful and I felt like all the stress and tiredness of the past several days went away with ease. Only real issue was....I didn't see a single whale, orca, dolphin or whatever out in the ocean. I did see host of naval helicopters and few flying fishes in the distance. Some people claims to have seen something but the rest of the boat did not. The schooner, America is a real treat and the boat was well helmed by its captain, Troy Sears who also owned the schooner. The schooner handled the water very well and the ship was well handled. I am pretty sure that he and the crew did their best to find something, but this is southern California, not Hawaii or Alaska. I didn't hold it against them for not finding what wasn't out there. Like I wrote earlier, I was enjoying the cruise and relaxing. It would have been nice to have a cold beer in my hand but even paradise got its limit. If Capt. Sears is reading this, my owl gave his best to you.

Beautiful trip and great crew!!
We weren’t fortunate enough to see whales on our tour; however the boat is beautiful and the crew provided us with great information on whales and history. They also will allow us to book another trip at no cost. They tried hard to find us some whales but sometimes nature doesn’t cooperate.
Did see sea lions, herons, cormorants, other birds, lighthouses and naval vessels.
Thanks to Captain Troy, Fathom, Matt and Adrianna!!! I will be back!

We didn't see any whales but still had a great time! It gets chilly, bring a jacket. Beer and wine available for purchase. Water, limited soda choices and small bag of assorted chips are provided. You can also bring your own snacks.

Decent ride
Good experience from the boat perspective disappointed in not seeing what we paid for but it was still something to experience being on that giant sail boat instead of the other boats we have taken before not sure if or when we will be back to Cali but if we do we would probably give it another shot

Great experience unfortunately we didn't see anything but the crew members were amazing. We were told that we would receive a free trip for not seeing anything so we are looking forward to that

The check in was easy to find and well marked. The crew were all very friendly and helpful. Comfortable sail even with the slightly rough seas. We were able to see dolphins, a humpback whale, lots of sea lions and sea birds. Perfectly comfortable traveling as a single female

You won't regret going
This was a lovely way to see whales, dolphins, and sea lions. It was a highlight of our short visit to San Diego
